In addition to providing craft design innovation solutions, Craft Innovation Training Programs strive towards the upliftment of the craft community involved. Craftspeople associated with the training gain exposure throughout the course of the training programme. Apart from an indirect exposure, training programs connect the craftspeople directly to individual professionals and organisations. Such a connect leads to the promotion of the craft and may result in future collaborations. The craftspeople associated with the training programme are provided exposure to the current needs and preferences of the industry, through interaction with the other participating peer groups. In addition to this, there could be site visits to factories, markets, production houses etc in order to connect the craftspeople to individual professionals and organisations. The task-list for this sub-stage is as follows : AS-1a : CONNECT THE CRAFTSPEOPLE AND PROFESSIONAL PRACTITIONERS & VICE VERSA AS-1b : CONNECT THE CRAFTSPEOPLE AND ORGANISATIONS & VICE VERSA AS-1c : DISSEMINATE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION THROUGH DISPLAYS, EXHIBITIONS, INVITATIONS ETC.
